    About:

    In 1881, Edward French immigrated to Canada from England. What began as a small market garden operation in Etobicoke soon grew to a much larger 30 acre farm with multiple greenhouses.

    In 1963, they incorporated the farm as Lennox Farms. During the intervening years, family members returned to keep farming, including Clarence and his son Bill (who was a founding Ontario Winter Rhubarb Growers Association).

    In 1988, son Brian and his wife Jeanette moved back to the farm to continue the family operation. Nowadays, they have a 500 acre farm, and are one of the only forced rhubarb growers left in Ontario, operating out of 10,000 sq ft warehouse.

    Rhubarb (forced) Conventional 1LB

    RHU-FRC-CNV-1LB

    Lennox Farms' winter (or "forced") rhubarb grows with little light, producing a tender deep red or pink stalk, and is not as tart as summer rhubarb. Hand picked and bunched by the pound, this limited-time rhubarb is a sure sign of spring! 

    Note: Rhubarb leaves are not edible and should be removed before eating. 

    Located in Shelburne, ON, Lennox Farms is a 5th generation family-owned farm owned and operated by Brian and Jeanette French.

    They grow a wide variety of fruits and vegetables and are particularly known for their forced winter rhubarb, rhubarb, and their Brussels sprouts!
